First let me state I am not one of those trying to make my "X" into a sports car wannabe. That said wanted to know if anyone has installed this item and noticed an improvement in rear visibility (lack of dirt buildup). In the past such items seemed to have no benefit, just wondering if this design lived up to its claims.

*ahem* search the forums...

Anyway, it has been doing a pretty decent job according to those that have posted. It's not perfect, but a substantial improvement.

I've had it a month now and it keeps the rear glass noticably cleaner.

here are some pics of mine http://superblackxterra.tripod.com/air.html
In heavy rain or a snow storm it helps a little. But as for normal dirt and dust it works great.One thing that it does that I realy like is that it spreads the washer fluid alot more.

I'm satisified with the Nissan version. Really helps on the dusty roads I frequent. Earlier reports of an aftermarket model have not been as positive.

dave and Xtoy - and it looks good
